UT football: Ash, McCoy still splitting time

AUSTIN — David Ash’s monopoly on Texas’ snaps at quarterback apparently was short-lived.

Longhorns coach Mack Brown said Monday Ash and Case McCoy are once again splitting first-team practice repetitions evenly as UT prepares for Saturday’s game against Kansas. McCoy didn’t take a single snap during the Longhorns’ last game, in which Ash went 22-of-40 for 139 yards with two interceptions against Oklahoma State.

Brown said Ash took most of the first-team snaps heading into OSU game, but the two quarterbacks went back into a time-share system last week. UT coaches “honestly don’t know today” who will start Saturday, Brown said.

“It could go on a long time,” Brown said of the two-quarterback situation. “It could go on the whole season. We just have to evaluate how they play.”
